In 2023, the U.S. Economic Development Administration designated Wisconsin as one of 31 Regional Technology and Innovation Hubs nationwide, thanks to the state’s thriving biohealth industry and the potential for Wisconsin to further develop as a global leader in personalized medicine.
The following year, Wisconsin was designated as a Phase 2 recipient in the program, which more than $80 million in federal funding committed to date. Led by BioForward Wisconsin, the Wisconsin Biohealth Tech Hub brings together world-class healthcare systems, research institutions, manufacturers, and technology companies to enhance the future of medicine.
